My family hired Shane Carter and Ridgeview Construction for the building of a single residence home…read morein Newmarket, NH. We were looking for a "green" builder who had experience working with energy efficient building concepts during our search. We found Shane on the internet and after an initial meeting with him, decided to work with his architect to design the home. RC helped us integrate a # of "green" elements into the home including structurally integrated panels (SIPs), a air-source heat pump (ducted with HRV), locally sourced white pine flooring, reclaimed interior doors, energy star windows and doors (41 in total), a heat pump water heater, and thoughtful integration of the entire energy system to take best use the energy generated by our solar tracker. The RC team and their subcontractors were all very professional; performed exemplary work and ended up building the exact house that we wanted. They essentially took a Powerpoint drawing that we made and turned it into a house. Some of our favorite design elements of the house are the reclaimed doors that we purchase from Architectural Salvage in Exeter, NH; an extremely well planned and space efficient pantry, built in book cases in our office; stained glass windows that look into the stairs from our kids bedrooms and a beautiful farmhouse sink that we had obtained for free from a house in Newfields (which they masterfully cut to fit under the windows). RC was very flexible throughout the entire building process and made adjustments as we made small changes during the build. Shane was also very helpful in making sure that we were well within our allowances and went out of his way to help us save money. Our total project costs ended up being under the original cost projections because of savings he found us in our allowances. We were extremely happy with Ridgeview and would highly recommend them to anyone interested in "green" building in NH. Thanks Shane, Andy and the entire Ridgeview team-Jon, Jane, George, Eva and Bonnie.

I worked as a subcontractor for Shane on a few different project for several weeks and the only…read morething I did was fix thing because his guys are unskilled carpenters. His so called superintendent is clueless about construction/ code. Every faze of the project had issues for not being done right at the end of all of it I was shorted $800 in labor and my millage was not reimbursed on my check. I was also the fifth carpenter to work for them on one project i do not recommend any one hire this company if you want to keep you sanity and have a quality home built on time and on budget ALL CLIENTS WERE VERY UPSET WITH SHANE ON ALL HOMES I WORKED ON

Ian Williams is my brother, so I'm obviously biased, but his handyman work and contracting work is…read moresuperb! He gave my husband and me the gift of the installation of a custom fold-down cutting board where a rickety fold-down ironing board used to be. This, of course, was totally his idea because he's creative like that. The cutting board is beautiful, solid, and functional, adding 30% more surface area to our kitchen. It's far superior to the ironing board that was there previously. He used top notch parts, sourced from specialty cabinet makers, to construct it. Ian was also timely and cleaned up after himself. I would feel confident hiring Ian for bigger projects, as I have seen him helping his former employer (my Dad) build bathrooms, kitchens, basements, and more. Sure, I may be his sister, but I'm his older sister and thus prone to harsh judgement... so you know you can trust my review, and Ian with all of your handyman needs.

Ian completed a bathroom remodel in our 1940s town house. Before Ian came to our aid, the bathroom…read morewas a nightmare--kelly green tile, broken prefab shower, water damage, and crumbling studs. Ian reframed our space and created a luxurious corner shower complete with an inset shelf for shampoo. His tiling job was excellent! He also thought to create a handy door to a water shut off that will be a huge help if we have issues in the future! Despite having a full bath steps from our bedroom, my husband and I both shower in the basement now, enjoying our spa-like retreat from Hilltop Renovations! Ian was a considerate worker while in our home. He took care of our living spaces by laying drop cloths and covering furniture to minimize drywall dust. He was super pleasant and personable--the dog missed him when our job was done. We highly recommend Ian for your next project. Margot and Nathan D.

He responded right away, gave a good estimate and we had him do the remodel. Work was done in the time he estimated and for the price he quoted. Quality of the work was excellent and he was able to handle all the little (and big) issues that one encounters in an old house. Very satisfied with all his work and hope to get him to do more this year.

My wife and I just moved into a home in Rochester, NH. Although the home was only twenty years old…read moreit was suffering from years of neglect and needed a lot of work. George started working on various interior projects a week after we moved in. He worked a solid two weeks. He started off by doing upgrades and repairs to our three bathrooms. He then replaced ugly carpeting on two sets of stairs and replaced hardwood stairs. This included staining and and putting two coats of polyurethane on the stairs. What was once a major eyesore is now beautiful, to say the least. George is very professional and does solid work. Even better than that his prices are fair. We like him so much that he is coming back in a few weeks to rebuild our deck and put in a patio. I would recommend George for almost every household fixup issue. I am so happy that he was recommended to us!

We knew it was going to be a long wait, so we were happy when we got the email that it was finally our turn for install! The three guys that did our install were very professional and worked very hard. They were here during the hottest week of August, so I give them huge props for getting everything done. They did some small bush and tree removal before the fence install. They got rid of all the debris, left the yard in great condition when they left, and most importantly, the fence looks great! We have some other projects on our dreamboats - we will definitely be contacting them again for their help!
